The four-year scholarship is designed for high school seniors. Students apply for the scholarship their senior year in high school. The ROTC Four-year Scholarships are awarded to the most outstanding applicants. In keeping with our high standards of excellence, candidates are selected for merit-based scholarships on their scholastic achievement and extra-curricular accomplishments. Even if you’re not awarded a scholarship now, there are other ROTC scholarship opportunities once you’re on campus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Selection of winners is based on academic record, school officials’ evaluations, extracurricular activity, leadership and athletics, a personal interview and a physical aptitude exam. Preference is given to students pursuing degrees in engineering, the physical sciences, or nursing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You’re eligible for the four-year ROTC scholarship if you’re ready to begin college as a full-time student, have no prior college experience, and meet the following requirements:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As a winner of a four-year scholarship, you’re required to take an ROTC class that demands a few hours of your time each week.

The four-year high school scholarship window normally opens the summer before the senior year on 15 June and ends on 31 January. Applicants are encouraged to submit their applications early. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
